NASCAR noise meter: Who got loudest cheers and boos?

DARLINGTON, S.C. — The latest installment of our NASCAR driver noise meter featured a twist: Many of the drivers' mothers were introduced along with the racers prior to Saturday night's Bojangles' Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway.

So would NASCAR fans dare boo a mom?

You bet.

We ranked the top 10 drivers in noise on an unscientific scale of 1-10, and asked a couple nearby fans for assistance, too.

Here are the 10 people who got the most noise during Darlington driver intros (with the type of noise in parentheses):

1 (tie). Dale Earnhardt Jr. ... 9.5 (mostly cheers)

1 (tie). Former wrestler Ric Flair ... 9.5 (mostly cheers)

3 (tie). Kyle Busch ... 9 (boos)

3 (tie). Jimmie Johnson ... 9 (mix)

3 (tie). Jeff Gordon ... 9 (mix)

6. Tony Stewart ... 8.5 (mostly cheers)

7. Mark Martin ... 8 (cheers)

8. Kasey Kahne ... 7.5 (cheers)

9 (tie). Kurt Busch ... 7 (mix)

9 (tie). Carl Edwards ... 7 (cheers)

9 (tie). Brad Keselowski ... 7 (mix)
